Immersion

At this stage of the process,
we are just a few steps from finishing.
This next step, for which you have been selected
among more than 6000 candidates,
seeks to make you a part of
an intensive self-training in programming and
hacking funded by Fluid Attacks,
called Immersion.

1. Philosophy

The goal of this stage
is for you to reach the highest levels of technical strength
prior to the execution of real pentests
on financial and telecommunications systems.
This stage also aims to validate your human and
teamwork skills.

Due to the extent of the process,
Fluid Attacks, regardless of your progress in points and ranking,
looks to give monetary compensation for the time invested.

3. Terms

You must report all the time spent
using the assigned tool in automatic mode.

Training must begin at 7:00 AM
in Fluid Attacks office.

You must send at least one MR accepted into master
or a standard progress report (when the MR is rejected)
before 6:00 PM of the current day.

You can continue training and
reporting time outside of the office in a place of your preference,
as long as you comply with the 2 previous rules.

If for some exceptional reason
you can not complete the training in person,
a weekly training schedule to do it remotely,
must be established.

Training must be done using your own personal laptop.

Your daily dedication will be evaluated using a reference time
of 48 hours/week.

It is expected that you can dedicate every business day
of the week in person at the company’s facilities.

If for some personal or health issue
it is not possible for you to go to the office
to complete the challenges,
that day no challenges are to be completed
nor is training time reported with the assigned tool.

On the third business day of each week,
you must train at your maximum capacity and dedication possible.

Start again solving a different challenge, the new difficulty is up to you.

7. Payment

The time reported to training will be paid at $6,468 COP an hour.

We expect a minimum dedication of 80%
(based on the reference time).

If the total dedication is greater or lower than what is expected,
that time will be paid accordingly.

The first 96 hours of training time reported will not be compensated and
If you continue in the training stage,
we will guarantee the payment of the next 96 hours.

The contract is a contract for services with monthly payments.

You must pay your social security corresponding to these services
as an independent worker.

You must present, in the 1st business day of the following month,
the documents that allow us to make payments to your account:

A bill for the hours worked in the previous month.

Payment stub of your social security for the previous period.

If you live in the outskirts of Bogotá or Medellín,
you can initially perform the immersion process remotely
with all the other unalterable terms, if and only if:

When we ask you to continue the immersion process in person
you accept to come to our facilities in maximum 7
calendar days after the request.

When you start the immersion process in person,
the hourly pay rate will be twice as much as indicated
(so you can cover transportation and accommodation costs).

We guarantee minimum 4 immersion cycles in this stage.

We clarify that, in case of hiring, the job will be performed in person
in our facilities located in Medellín or Bogotá.
The immersion is still a stage of the selection process,
where we seek to improve the interaction with our team
and deepen other training topics.

If you are currently working somewhere else,
you can perform the immersion under the following conditions:

Indicate the weekly dedication that you are willing to train
(minimum 8 hours).

I have read and understood all the documentation and
terms of the immersion stage.
I accept the offer and confirm that I can start on AAAA/MM/DD.
